Public bug reported: This is SRU request for Trusty.
[Impact] * ipmi-locate on EFI system does not location the BMC information on new uefi system. * as Trusty LTS is supported OS for different OEM and ipmi-locate is requirement for MAAS and server certification. So all EFI system certification is blocker for Trusty so it needs to go in Trusty for server certification. * FE at HP verified after the patch it fixes the issue and certification can be progress once its available in Trusty LTS. [Test Case] * apt-get install freeipmi * run command ipmi-locate on Gen9 uefi hardware and there is no return data about ipmi on uefi system where location of uefi is different than legacy BIOS. [Regression Potential] * we need to run the test on all hardware including the legacy BIOS and new UEFI system servers. As this code change already working on dmidecode for all server so we won't see any regression. ** Affects: freeipmi (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to freeipmi in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1359409 Title: ipmi-locate only works on ia64 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/freeipmi/+bug/1359409/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
